Vue - closing dialog from child component - vue.js

I'm using Vue and Vuetify and I'm having trouble closing a dialog from within a child component using $emit. In the main component I'm using v:on:close-dialog="closeDialog" and setting this.dialog = false. I'm trying to call that function from within the child. Trying three different ways:
On the <v-icon>close</v-icon> in the child component, I'm calling a closeDialog method that calls this.$emit('close-dialog').
On the <v-btn>Cancel</v-btn>, I have v-on:click="$emit('close-dialog')".
On the <v-btn>Cancel 2</v-btn>, I have v-on:click="$emit('dialog',false)".
None of those close the dialog or fire off the closeDialog method in the main component. Code is below.
mainComponent:
<template>
<v-flex>
<v-flex xs12 class="text-xs-right">
<v-dialog v-model="dialog" fullscreen hide-overlay
transition="dialog-bottom-transition">
<v-btn fab slot="activator" small color="red" dark>
<v-icon dark >add</v-icon>
</v-btn>
<childComponent v:on:close-dialog="closeDialog" />
</v-dialog>
</v-flex>
</v-flex>
</template>
<script>
import childComponent from './childComponent'
export default {
data(){
return{
dialog: false
}
},
name: 'Test',
components: {
childComponent
},
methods:{
closeDialog: function(){
console.log('close dialog 2');
this.dialog = false;
}
}
}
</script>
childComponent:
<template>
<v-flex xs12>
<v-card>
<v-toolbar dark color="primary">
<v-btn icon dark v-on:click="closeDialog">
<v-icon>close</v-icon>
</v-btn>
<v-toolbar-title>Dialog Test</v-toolbar-title>
<v-spacer></v-spacer>
<v-toolbar-items>
<v-btn dark flat v-on:click="$emit('close-dialog')">Cancel</v-btn>
</v-toolbar-items>
<v-spacer></v-spacer>
<v-toolbar-items>
<v-btn dark flat v-on:click="$emit('dialog',false)">Cancel 2</v-btn>
</v-toolbar-items>
</v-toolbar>
<v-flex xs12 class="px-10">
<v-form ref="form">
<v-text-field
v-model="testField"
:counter="150"
label="Test field"
required
></v-text-field>
</v-form>
</v-flex>
</v-card>
</v-flex>
</template>
<script>
export default {
data: () => ({
testField: ''
}),
methods: {
closeDialog: function(){
console.log('close dialog 1');
this.$emit('close-dialog');
}
}
}
</script>
As you might have guessed, I'm new to Vue and still fumbling my way through it. Any help would be much appreciated.

In your parent you have:
<childComponent v:on:close-dialog="closeDialog" />
it should be (hyphen replaces colon in v-on):
<childComponent v-on:close-dialog="closeDialog" />
or #close-dialog altenatively.
This method, combined with this.$emit('close-dialog'); in your child should work.

Modify drop down value with preset value

I'm designing a form that can both used to create and edit something.
The form has a dropdown, which isn't initialized when created, but is set with a value when used for editing.
I want to be able to modify the value of the drop down, both for creating & updating, yet is only working when the mode is CREATE.
Here's my template:
<template>
<v-row justify="center">
<v-form ref="form" v-model="valid" lazy-validation>
<v-text-field v-model="title" label="Title*" :rules="rules.fieldRules" prepend-icon="mdi-text">
</v-text-field>
<v-text-field v-model="website_link" label="URL" prepend-icon="mdi-web">
</v-text-field>
<h3>Description</h3>
<text-editor #update:modelValue="getValue" :rules="rules.fieldRules" :modelValue="description">
</text-editor>
<br />
<v-select v-model="selectedState" :readonly="false" :items="items" filled label="Which state?*" prepend-icon="mdi-help"></v-select>
<v-file-input v-model="files" prepend-icon="mdi-camera" multiple label="File input"></v-file-input>
<v-layout v-for="file of files" :key="file">
<v-img :src="generateUrl(file)" max-width="10%" max-height="10%">
</v-img>
</v-layout>
<v-combobox v-model="tags" prepend-icon="mdi-lightbulb" label="Tags" chips clearable multiple filled
rounded></v-combobox>
<v-btn :disabled="mode == 'EDIT' ? false : !valid" color="success" class="mr-4" #click="validate">
Validate
</v-btn>
<v-btn color="blue" class="mr-4" #click="backToProfile">
Back
</v-btn>
</v-form>
</v-row>
</template>
selectedState is a computed method described as below here:
selectedState: {
get() {
if (this.mode == 'CREATE') {
return this.state
} else {
const state = this.items.filter((item) => item.value = this.currentConcept.state)[0].title;
this.setState(state);
return this.state;
}
},
set(value) {
console.log(`value: ${value}`)
this.state = value;
}
}
Am I missing something?
TIA

How to avoid mutating a prop directly when all you have is a click?

How can I mutate a prop the correct way, so that I don't get the [Vue warn]: Avoid mutating a prop directly message?
I already got the v-model to work on this v-dialog. However, I also want to provide a close button in the dialog itself, which causes this mutation warning, as it's the dialog itself that's mutating the variable. How best to approach this case and solve it?
Dialog.vue:
<template>
<v-dialog
:value="value" #input="$emit('input', $event)"
scrollable
width="80vw"
:transition="false"
>
<template v-slot:activator="{ on }">
<div v-on="on" #click="$emit('open')">
<slot name="button">
<v-btn color="primary">{{ buttonText == null ? title : buttonText }}</v-btn>
</slot>
</div>
</template>
<v-card
elevation="10"
height="80vh"
>
<v-system-bar
color="light-blue darken-3"
window
>
<span>{{title}}</span>
<v-spacer></v-spacer>
<v-icon #click="value=false">mdi-close</v-icon>
</v-system-bar>
<v-card-text> <!-- required here to make the scrollable v-dialog work -->
<slot></slot>
</v-card-text>
<slot name="actions"></slot>
</v-card>
</v-dialog>
</template>
<script>
export default {
props: {
title: {
type: String,
required: true,
},
buttonText: String,
value: Boolean,
},
}
</script>
I can use it quite nicely like:
<mydialog title="Select something" button-text="A button!" v-model="dialog" #open="loadData()">
Content goes here...
</mydialog>
The <v-icon #click="value=false">mdi-close</v-icon> is what's incorrectly mutating the "value"-variable.
Sidenote #1: The open event is there so I can populate data (loadData) from a database when the dialog is opened (vs. when its created on the DOM).
UPDATE; I can get it to work by doing:
<v-icon #click="$emit('close', $event)">mdi-close</v-icon>
and
<mydialog title="Select something" button-text="A button!" v-model="dialog" #open="loadData()" #close="dialog=false">
However, I feel this is far from being elegant. Aren't there any solutions in where I don't need to add on-Handlers to close this dialog? I almost feel that this is worse than living with the warning.. :|
Use a computed property with get and set. The dialog computed will behave exactly as a normal variable and it will eliminate the warning. Now you can use it to get the value and also to set the value.
Try this:
<template>
<v-dialog
:value="dialog"
#input="$emit('input', $event)"
scrollable
width="80vw"
:transition="false"
>
<template v-slot:activator="{ on }">
<div v-on="on" #click="dialogOpened()">
<slot name="button">
<v-btn color="primary">{{ buttonText == null ? title : buttonText }}</v-btn>
</slot>
</div>
</template>
<v-card elevation="10" height="80vh">
<v-system-bar color="light-blue darken-3" window>
<span>{{title}}</span>
<v-spacer></v-spacer>
<v-icon #click="dialog=false">mdi-close</v-icon>
</v-system-bar>
<v-card-text>
<!-- required here to make the scrollable v-dialog work -->
<slot></slot>
</v-card-text>
<slot name="actions"></slot>
</v-card>
</v-dialog>
</template>
export default {
props: ['title', 'buttonText', 'value'],
data: () => ({
dlg_close: false,
}),
computed: {
dialog: {
get() {
return this.value;
},
set(selection) {
this.$emit("input", selection);
}
}
},
methods: {
dialogOpened(newVal) {
this.dialog = newVal;
},
},
}

how can i call modal component inside a v-for loop?

I use vuetify https://vuetifyjs.com/en/
My parent component like this :
<template>
<v-container>
...
<v-col
v-for="(item, i) in items"
:key="i"
>
<v-card
>
<v-app-bar dark color="grey">
<v-toolbar-title>Weekly Schedule : {{item.name}}</v-toolbar-title>
<div class="flex-grow-1"></div>
<modal-datepicker :schedule="item" />
</v-app-bar>
</v-col>
...
</v-container>
</template>
<script>
import { mapState } from "vuex";
import modalDatepicker from "../views/modalDatepicker";
export default {
components: {modalDatepicker},
};
</script>
My child component like this :
<template>
<v-dialog
:ref="dialog"
v-model="modal"
:return-value.sync="date"
>
<template v-slot:activator="{ on }">
<v-btn color="success" dark v-on="on">Show datepicker</v-btn>
</template>
<v-row justify="center">
<v-date-picker v-model="date" scrollable>
<div class="flex-grow-1"></div>
<v-btn text color="primary" #click="modal = false">Cancel</v-btn>
<v-btn text color="primary">OK</v-btn>
</v-date-picker>
</v-row>
</v-dialog>
</template>
<script>
import { mapState } from "vuex";
import modalDatepicker from "../views/modalDatepicker";
export default {
components: {modalDatepicker},
props: ['schedule'],
data: () => ({
date: new Date().toISOString().substr(0, 10),
modal: false,
}),
mounted() {
console.log(this.schedule)
},
};
</script>
The code above works, but seems inefficient. because every time the loop, it call modal dialog. I want modal to only be called when user click show datepicker button
how do i do that?
Apologies as I am on my mobile. Have you considered having the modal in your parent component outside of the loop?
You could have a data variable to handle your modal e.g
modal: {
open: false,
schedule: null }
Essentially then when your button is clicked you could add a v-click with a function that controls this data which in turns handles the content in the modal.
Then on your date picker or modal have a function to handle the update/close to clear this data and handle whatever you need too outside.
Then you could combine this into one component.
I see you have vuex you could also use vuex to control your modal and it’s contents.

Extracting the information in a prop in a Vue child component

I'm passing a object as a prop to a child component but I can't reference one of its elements (user_id) to use in a method in that child component.
My code (slightly abbreviated) is:
<template>
<div class="back">
<v-app id="inspire">
<v-content>
<v-container fluid>
<v-card flat>
<v-card-title>
<div>
<div class="headline">
{{data.title}}
</div>
<span class="grey--text">{{data.user}} said {{data.created_at}}</span>
</div>
<v-spacer></v-spacer>
<v-badge color="deep-orange accent-3" left overlap>
<span slot="badge">7</span>
<v-icon color="grey lighten-1" large>
insert_comment
</v-icon>
</v-badge>
<!--<v-btn color="deep-orange accent-3">5 replies</v-btn>-->
</v-card-title>
<v-card-text v-html="data.body"></v-card-text>
<v-card-actions v-if="own">
<v-btn icon small>
<v-icon color="deep-orange accent-3">edit</v-icon>
</v-btn>
<v-btn icon small>
<v-icon color="red">delete</v-icon>
</v-btn>
</v-card-actions>
</v-card>
<return-button></return-button>
</v-container>
</v-content>
</v-app>
</div>
</template>
<script>
export default {
name: "ShowQuestion",
props: ['data'],
data() {
return {
own: this.Own(),
}
},
methods: {
Own: function () {
return this.UserID() == this.user_id <---HERE BE DRAGONS! (reported as 'undefined')
},
UserID: function () {
... returns the 'sub' from the JWT token
return sub;
}
},
}
</script>
While the correct information is being displayed in the template, I also need to be able to compare the user's ID from the token with that contained in the prop (i.e. data.user_id). My reading suggests the solution will involve converting the object to an array, but that's beyond my current skill level too. I'd appreciate some pointers to a solution.
Thanks,
Tom
If you can render data.user_id in your template you can use it anywhere, but I'd probably do something like this to solve your problem:
props: ['data']
data() {
return {
}
},
computed: {
UserId() {
return //however you get your id
}
},
Then your v-if could just be this:
<v-card-actions v-if="UserId === data.user_id">

How to trigger a method at component opening in vuejs?

I have a main component that is used to display items using a loop:
<v-list-tile v-for="(item, index) in items" :key="item.title">
...
<report type="item.type"> </report>
</v-list>
The report component is used to report abuse on the system, and report type may vary depending on the item from the parent loop.
As users are very unlikely to use report on a regular basis I would like to only load v-select elements when the Dialog (modal) is opened.
Using created or mounted triggers the loading method everytime the report component is generated and not when the report component is opened.
Is there a smart way to prevent this and only have the loading method within report being triggered only when the component is opened.
=== Report.vue file ===
=== This file is loaded in the parent component
<template lang="html">
<v-dialog v-model="dialog" persistent max-width="800px" lazy>
<v-btn icon slot="activator">

<v-card>
<v-card-title>
<div class="headline"><v-icon large>error_outline</v-icon> Reporting</div>
</v-card-title>
<v-card-text>You are about to report the following {{ reportType }}: "<i>{{ reportContent.title }}</i>"

methods: {
cancel () {
this.dialog = false
},
report () {
this.dialog = false
},
loadReasons (type) {

this.$store.dispatch('report/setItems', type)
}
}
}
}
</script>
<style lang="css" scoped>
</style>
PS 1: I'm not using JQuery and do not intend to use it
PS 2: Calling the method outside of the report component is not an option as I want to maximize reusability of this compenent and only pass arguments to it using props
How I have done this in the past is to use a "dynamic component." Vue uses a special syntax for dynamic components <component v-bind:is="currentView"></component> see: Vue dynamic components
You can set the "currentView" property to null and then on a button click another event set the currentView to report. Doing it this way will allow you to use the mounted method as the component is not rendered or created until it is dynamically called.
<component :is="myComponent"></component>
<v-btn #click="loadComponent">Show Report</v-btn>
then...
data:{
myComponent: null;
},
methods: {
loadComponent: function(){
this.myComponent = 'report';
}
}
P.S. You can of course use this method to render any other components in the same place. i.e. you can set the 'currentView' to the name of any available component and it will be instantly rendered in its place.
I ended up using a watch on the boolean managing the dialog...
Make a function which loads the v-select. Don't initialize it just create it. Now whenever user clicks the report model you can initialize multiple functions using v-on:click or #click.
For example :
<div v-on:click="return function() { fn1('foo');fn2('bar'); }()"> </div>
